Swedish progressive metallers OPETH will release their new album, “Heritage”, on September 20 (one day earlier internationally) via Roadrunner Records. The CD was produced by the band’s mainman, Mikael Åkerfeldt, and was recorded earlier this year at Atlantis studios (formerly Metronome studios) in Stockholm. Mixing duties were handled by Steven Wilson (PORCUPINE TREE) and Åkerfeldt. Longtime collaborator Travis Smith also worked with Åkerfeldt to create, design and execute the album’s artwork, which can be seen in the picture.
Play.com has listed a pre-order deal for “Heritage” that is not to be missed! The special edition includes a 5.1 mix of the album and making-of documentary, including a download card with two bonus tracks: “Pyre” and “Face In the Snow”. The package also includes an OPETH coin, which can be seen in the picture below.
